The stunning largely-original character of this gorgeous 3 bedroom 1 bathroom art-deco-style Californian Bungalow will impress you, as will its commanding street-front position just down the road from Bassendean Primary School and only walking distance away from bus stops, the sprawling Bindaring Park and our picturesque Swan River.
Beyond a leafy frontage and beautiful white picket fence lie soaring high ceilings, solid wooden Jarrah floorboards, timber skirting boards, feature decorative ceiling roses and cornices and even classic light switches of yesteryear. It really is like taking a journey back through time.
A carpeted front lounge welcomes you inside and reveals a ceiling fan, a gas-bayonet fireplace and double doors that open into the dining room. Off here, you will find a splendid kitchen that leaves space for casual meals, is illuminated by a central skylight and boasts a Kleenmaid electric-upright cooker, as well as a Westinghouse range hood.
The front master bedroom is huge, whilst the second bedroom can easily be converted into a study if need be. The bathroom is nice and charming, playing host to an accessible shower, a toilet and a vanity.
Exquisite double French doors link the utility area off the kitchen to a fabulous rear sunroom with delightful leadlight features and outdoor access to the back courtyard. This spacious paved area even wraps around to the side of the property, leaving heaps of room for entertaining in complete privacy.
Only minutes separate your front doorstep from the likes of Bassendean Oval, Bassendean Train Station, Bassendean Shopping Centre and Old Perth Road where cafes, restaurants, community amenities and even the Bassendean Hotel are all so easily accessible. Throw in a very close proximity to other outstanding school and educational facilities, additional bus routes into the city and major arterial roads leading to Perth Airport, the Swan Valley and much, much more and you have yourself quite the modern lifestyle. This one’s an oldie, but it’s also a goodie!
